Several thousand years from now, advanced humanoids known as the
Makers will implant clockwork devices into our heads. At the cost
of a certain amount of agency, these devices will permit us to move
unhindered through time and space, and to live complacent,
well-regulated lives. However, when one of these devices goes awry,
a "clockwork man" appears accidentally in the 1920s, at a cricket
match in a small English village. Comical yet mind-blowing hijinks
ensue. Considered the first cyborg novel, The Clockwork Man was
first published in 1923 -- the same year as Karel Capek's
pioneering android play, R.U.R.
